Drinks! England are fighting back. Both the set batters are back into the shed. The pressure is back on the hosts now. They need 67 from 65 balls now with 5 wickets in their bank. England will try to pick more wickets, while Sri Lanka will look to build a gritty stand from here on. The game seems evenly poised as of now. Let's see how it pans out. Janith Liyanage walks in to bat now.
